Answer explanation
Choice C is correct. The y-intercept of a graph is the point where the graph intersects the y-axis. The line graphed intersects the y-axis at the point . Therefore, the y-intercept of the line graphed is .
Choice A is incorrect and may result from conceptual errors.
Choice B is incorrect and may result from conceptual errors.
Choice D is incorrect and may result from conceptual errors.
